Notes

Notes are my shorter posts; kinda like my own little microblog. They have their own RSS feed and are automatically syndicated to my social profiles.

There's a big yellow thing in the sky that has killed all the snow.

I don't know what it is.

Send help.

I don’t understand services like Instagram and their ilk. They’re photo sharing services, right? But I can share photos here AND write text AND add links. See, I just did both below.

Don’t get it. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

With all the shit going on at the moment with #WordPress and #Facebook, this is a welcome change.

Love this.

"Quickly switching to the new monitor" has turned into a bit more of a thing. πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™‚οΈ

Out with the dogs in the fields, kids are sword fighting with some sticks in the background (can you find them?) this is what Sundays are all about.

Picking the kids up from school today (which is at the top of a massive hill) and it's utter carnage with all the snow. Glad I got here early, but I'm worried I'm gonna come back to a damaged car...

Thank you, hooman, for lighting the fire for me.

Just logging in to catch up on work emails ahead of going back tomorrow. I know I'm going to regret this...

It's so cold even the chickens don't want to go out! πŸ“πŸ₯Ά

First day back to school/work tomorrow. The kids did NOT like being forced awake at 7am this morning to get them ready for tomorrow. πŸ˜‚

I really hate the dark version of my site. I'm thinking about removing it completely and going light only, but don't want to burn people's retinas at night. I suppose there's always reader mode for them... πŸ€”

Ok, so I just watched The Godfather. Yeahhhh it's pretty good.

Just looking at Manton’s new Micro.one service and I don’t understand it.

It looks like Micro.blog, less the cross-posting stuff, for the same price. Colour me utterly confused. What am I missing?

Been in bed since 10pm on #NewYearsEve and that’s perfect. πŸ‘Œ

I think that's the closest I've ever come to running out of fuel. The car stopped reporting miles remaining around 8 miles from home. 🫣

Managed to limp it home just about though.

Love a winter walk in the hills. The views are beautiful. πŸ˜‚

Today I need to:

  1. Take the dogs for a walk
  2. Service the lawn mowers

But I can't be arsed doing anything. I always get really lazy and lose motivation when I have extended periods of time off work (I've been off for a week at this point).

God help me when I retire!

Mentioned recently that my iPad was on its last legs after nearly 6 years of faithful service. So started thinking about a replacement. I only use it for reading RSS and some YouTube before bed. Instead of looking for a replacement, I just decided to stop watching YT before bed, and read RSS on my phone. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Now I pick-up my Kindle instead, which is far better than watching crap on YT.

Out of office is on, work phone is switched off, and that's me for 2024! Merry Christmas, all! πŸŽ‰

Well this doesn't look good. 🫣

I hope to find the time, energy, and money to reopen all of this sometime in the new year.

"Sometime in the new year" doesn't sound like a holiday break to me.
